Dolphins belong in the ocean, not an aquarium #39canimals

[Sadaf Barakzoy @SBarakzoy]

Over 3000 captive dolphins are living in inadequate conditions in small enclosures making it highly unethical. The circumstances that these dolphins are forced to live in are nothing like their natural habitats. #39canimals https://t.co/C1yhLIm4Pr.

No animal deserves to be chained #39canimals

[Emiliano Jr. Alanis @EmilianoJrA75]

When elephants remain chained up for hours a day with little to no movement, they "develop abnormal behavior like rocking and swaying back and forth (“Animal Circuses, Animal Suffering.”). #39canimals

Fireworks cause a lot of problems, there should be multiple alternatives for fireworks that aren’t as loud and destructive #39canimals

This is sickening, especially how these industries are still running off of the ignorance of people #39canimals

[Sadaf Barakzoy @SBarakzoy]

After dolphins are hunted and captured, many of them are sold into captivity. One problem that dolphins continue to face is falling victim to tourist entertainment industries #39canimals

Sustainability does so much for us and the planet we share with animals #39canimals

[Giselle Huerta @GiselleHuerta16]

In order to help chimpanzees we must help local communities first. By showing these communities sustainable practices for agriculture they'll be using the land sustainably and conserving the land. #39canimals

I actually had so much trouble with the website at first but it’s quite satisfying seeing everything come together #39canimals

Terrible, dogs aren’t objects #39canimals

[Vicente Sandoval Jr. @vicentjs23]

Because of #puppymills' horrid conditions, dogs are often sold to pet stores or the consumer themselves with a variety of health issues, that’s if the dog can make it alive to that point. #39canimals

I completely agree! Peer review has helped me so much #39canimals

[Monica Tith @tith_monica]

Fireworks are bright and noisy, they look cool though #39canimals

[Monica Tith @tith_monica]

Protect the hairy babies #39canimals

[Giselle Huerta @GiselleHuerta16]

Chimpanzee Conservation Center rescues chimps that have been confiscated by authorities and rehabilitates them to be potentially released back into the wild. They educate local communities about the issues chimps face and the importance they are and so much more. #39canimals

What I learned from 39c was how to navigate through Twitter, something I’ve always wanted to use because it is the source for all memes and animal rights too #whatilearnedin39c

[Monica Tith @tith_monica]

What I learned through 39c was how to write a decent literature review and advocate for animals in a formal context #whatilearnedfrom39c

[Monica Tith @tith_monica]

I learned that penguins are necrophiliacs #whatilearnedin39c

[Monica Tith @tith_monica]

What I learned in 39c was the usefulness of social media for research. I did not know I could learn so much that was not directly from reading a research paper #whatilearnedfrom39c

[Monica Tith @tith_monica]

What I learned in 39c is how to use and create a website through Wix which will serve useful in the future #whatilearnedin39c

[Monica Tith @tith_monica]

For the amount in value of the prairie dog habitats destroyed, it has to be reprimanded for through purchased habitats or a donation into the mitigation fund and of equal or greater value that the land destroyed #39canimals

[Monica Tith @tith_monica]

Visual barriers serve useful to prairie dogs as they tend to avoid such areas because they need a clear view of predators from a distance in order to elicit their alarm calls #39canimals

[Monica Tith @tith_monica]

Control programs were put in place as a result of the assumption that prairie dogs are in competition for forage with domesticated animals, but prairie dogs and livestock were known to have always settled amongst one another. #39canimals

[Monica Tith @tith_monica]

While there are many problems facing prairie dogs, the most relevant and prominent issue that needs to be addressed is the loss of their habitats due to human activity. #39canimals

[Monica Tith @tith_monica]

It is evident that threats to prairie dogs are minimal within managed preserves suggesting that these allocated species are thriving in areas that are made for them to adapt to #39canimals
